  • Systems, methods, and media for multiple reference arm spectral domain optical coherence tomography
    Patent number: 12181280
    Abstract: In some embodiments, systems, methods, and media for multiple reference arm spectral domain optical coherence tomography are provided which, in some embodiments, includes: a sample arm coupled to a light source; a first reference arm having a first path length; a second reference arm having a longer second path length; a first optical coupler that combines light from the sample arm and the first reference arm; a second coupler that combines light from the sample arm and the second reference arm; and an optical switch comprising: a first input port coupled to the first optical coupler; a second input coupled to the second coupler via an optical waveguide that induces a delay at least equal to an acquisition time of an image sensor; and an output coupled to the image sensor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 15, 2023
    Date of Patent: December 31, 2024
    Assignee: The General Hospital Corporation
